24 + 3x = 3x + 3(7 - 1)
Eliminate the parentheses:    24 + 3x = 3x + 3(6)
                                              24 + 3x = 3x + 18
Subtract  3x  from each side:       <em>24  =  18</em>
Look at that for a second.  Can ANY value of 'x' make 24 equal to 18 ?
I don't think so.
There's NO number that makes the equation a true statement.
That's just another way to say: "The equation has NO solution."
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:4 dozens of video games would cost $1956
Step-by-step explanation:
An electronic store prices 3 dozen video games at a total of 1467. A dozen of video games is 12. Therefore, the total number of video games whose cost is 1467 is 12 × 3 = 36
if each video game costs the same amount, then the cost of one video game would be 
1467/36 = $40.75
The total number of video games in 4 dozens of video game would be 
4 × 12 = 48 
Therefore, the total cost of 48 video games would be 
48 × 40.75 = $1956
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
f^(-1)(x) = \frac{-1}{5} (x+4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given is a function 

To find its inverse.
We must check whether f is one to one or onto first
If -5x1-4 = -5x2-4 we get x1=x2
Hence f is one to one
Also for every f(x) we can find a x so f is onto.
So inverse exists
Let

Replace x by f inverse and y by x

 
        
             
        
        
        
The slope is 2 units down for 9 units over, so is -2/9. The y-intercept is 4.
In slope-intercept form the equation of the line is
  y = (-2/9)x +4
